About Wintersong: Anna Vogelzang curated the first Wintersong in 2012. As the Madison Isthmus explains, “Music can nourish the soul and provide food for thought, but unfortunately, it can't be eaten when times get tough. Luckily, a group of local musicians have found a way to turn songs into sustenance: Wintersong.” Vogelzang recruited the original roster of musicians to create an event focused on giving, warmth and friendship, as well as giving back to the music community in thanks for another year of support.
